Additional routes to Ethiopia, Uganda and South Africa will begin in 2025
Emirates has ramped up its presence across Africa, with the introduction of additional flights to Entebbe in Uganda, Addis Abba in Ethiopia, and Johannesburg in South Africa.
Since Emirates' inaugural flight into Africa in 1986, Emirates has progressively grown its presence on the continent.
Last month Emirates increased its service between Dubai and Uganda from five weekly flights to a daily service.
At the 2024 Arabian Travel Market, Emirates signed an MoU with the Uganda Tourism Board, aiming to encourage international travellers to experience the destination’s abundance of natural, cultural and adventure attractions.

From 1 January 2025, Emirates will also increase frequency in Ethiopia, with a daily flight connecting Dubai and Addis Abba.
This will be followed by a fourth daily flight to Johannesburg, which, from 1 March 2025, will introduce a morning slot to and from South Africa’s largest and busiest international airport.
The additional flight brings Emirates’ operations back to pre-pandemic levels, with 49 weekly flights into South Africa.
Once the additional frequencies are activated, Emirates will operate 161 weekly flights between Dubai and African destinations.
